Submission Description
In 2023, an estimated 187 women and transwomen were killed in Indonesia, according to a 2024 report by Jakarta Feminist. The initiative to document femicide cases emerged due to the absence of national femicide data. Data was collected from online news articles between May and August 2024 using specific keywords such as perempuan/transpuan dibunuh or mayat perempuan. Most victims (37%) were killed by intimate partners, followed by family members (13%). The majority of victims were killed outside their homes (51%), while 45% were found around their residences. A concerning 11% victims experienced rape and other sexual violences prior to murder. Despite the Sexual Violence Law, it's rarely applied in femicide cases involving sexual violence. Through the media analysis, the report reveals that 19% of the media coverage sensationalized the case and 4% contained elements of victim blaming.
